There are criticisms that, despite the proactive government policy on open government data (hereinafter "open data"), certain highly demanded data remains restricted due to legal constraints. In this study, we aim to analyze the factors that limit the opening and utilization of open data, focusing on cases wherein requests for open data provision have been denied. We will explore possible approaches that are in harmony with the Open Data Law while examining the constitutional value of open data, considering the foundational Open Data Charter that underpins the government's data policy. We will also examine cases wherein requests for data provision have been denied for institutional reasons, with nearly half of these cases involving open data that includes personal information. It is necessary to explore the potential for improvement in these cases. Furthermore, considering the recent amendment to the Personal Information Protection Act, which allows for the processing of pseudonymous information without the consent of the data subject for limited purposes, it is an opportune time to consider the need for amending the Open Data Law to facilitate broader access and utilization of open data for the nation. Lastly, we will propose institutional improvement directions aligned with the opening and utilization of open data by examining the constraints of and need for improvement in the selected target laws.

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to examine how a broad palette of government support measures and firms' membership in government-developed clusters are related to firms' openness in innovation processes. Design/methodology/approach - Empirically, this study analyzes the Korea Innovation Survey 2018 data on the innovation activities of 1,450 Korean R&D-active manufacturing firms in a three-year period from 2015 through 2017. Findings - The results suggest that firms engage in open innovation to a greater extent--as measured by the breadth of external collaborating partners and of the utilized external sources of knowledge--when they are provided with a broader palette of government support measures and are located in government-developed clusters. However, the effect of diverse government support measures is attenuated for firms located in these clusters. Research implications or Originality - This study contributes to the innovation literature by illuminating how firms' open innovation can be understood in a national innovation system. Moreover, it provides valuable implications for firms seeking to obtain government support and collaborate with others.

In Korea, the act for promoting use of the public data has been enforced since 2013. The Key Government 3.0 Strategy was established for providing the public data as an obligation of public authorities for users to use them free of charge. The aim of open public data and using them targeted by the government is creation of a solution for vitalizing the economy by using the public data. However, the reason for low usability and tangible outcomes despite unlimited provision of open government data is as follows. That is, it is essential to address the issue of difficult software technology required to access public data for using the data. However, with the open API method currently provided, the development procedure is not easy even for IT students or specialized software developers. Therefore, strategies for each step ideal for the level of developers are required to vitalize applications based on the public data and developed by ordinary users. Two strategic methods can be used for facilitating the use of public data and applications developed by ordinary users suggested in this paper on the basis of the public data portal organized by the Ministry of the Interior and provided to all ordinary users. That is, they are applications developed in the web browser environment and those developed in the PC environment. They allow ordinary users to develop and distribute applications based on the public data to contribute to enforcing the policy for facilitating the use of public data of the government just with basic training and basic knowledge from the training without using program coding knowledge of open API which requires the knowledge of development professionals.

Recently, introduction of Open Source Software into informatization of the government and public sector has been actively examined, however, Open Source Software is being rarely adopted due to the lack of verified and reliable data with regard to the criteria, process, performance and stability for introduction of Open Source Software. In this paper, the process, method and plan for performance verification for introduction of Open Source Software into mission critical systems of the government and public sector are suggested in order to solve the aforesaid problem Specially, a test system to judge whether or not to adopt Open Source Software in school affairs system of the NEIS(National Education Information System) of the Korean government was set up, and the method and process of performance verification by stage in addition to feasibility study were applied to the test system for verification. Based on the result of performance evaluation in the test system, the application of Linux to school affairs system of the NEIS is being successfully practiced. It is expected that this study will be a guideline to technical review process and performance verification method as necessary to introduce Open Source Software into the mission critical systems of government and public agencies.

Under the flag of creative economy, Korea government is now releasing public data in order to develop or provide a range of services. In this paper, we develop a customized trip navigation system to recommend a trip itinerary based on integration of open government data and personal tourist data. The system uses case-based reasoning (CBR) to provide a personalized trip navigation service. The main difference between existing trip information systems and ours is that our system can offers a user-oriented information service. In addition, our system supports Turn-key style contents provision to maximize convenience. Our system can be a good example of the way in which open government data can be used to design a new service.

This study is based on data ecology theory and takes Chinese local governments' open public data as the research object. Data asset value assessment methods are compared from a new perspective of data business operations. The results show that the assessment model constructed using the hierarchical analysis method (AHP) can more objectively reflect the commercial value of government open data assets than the traditional cost, revenue and market methods, has the advantage of a comprehensive assessment of data value index, and better reflects the findings of a comprehensive index of regional data value. The data show that the local government data value assessment index is positively proportional to the region's digital economy development index, highlighting the driving effect on the digital economy. The results of the study provide a good help for the identification of local government data value rights. The research and practice of promoting the construction of data innovation and data business operation models, improving social well-being and promoting the rapid development of the digital economy to achieve data realisation provides a good reference.

Public open data is a database or electronic file produced by a public agency or government. The government is opening public data through the open data portals and individual agency websites. However, it is a reality that there is a limit to search and utilize desired public data from the perspective of data users. In particular, it takes a great deal of effort and time to understand the characteristics of data sets and to combine different data sets. This study suggests the possibility of interlinking between data sets by analyzing the common relationship of item names held by public data. The data sets are collected from the open data portal, and item names included in the data sets are extracted. The extracted item names consist of formal context and formal concept through formal concept analysis. The format concept has a list of data sets and a set of item name as extent and intent, respectively, and analyzes the common items of intent end to determine the possibility of data connection. The results derived from the formal concept analysis can be effectively applied to the semantic connection of the public data, and can be applied to data standard and quality improvement for public data release.
